Capítulo 17: Witnessing the Vastness of power of nature
The weather seemed to become more colder and the weather app even showed that it was supposed to be cloudy, and unlike the other days, he could feel it was not just that fog in this region, rather a rainy season had already arrived.
The case was not the same in the city as the weather was very different there. It had been raining for days, and the rain even seemed to be causing some storms, this made the travel plans of a lot of people become disrupted and even the old man Gao Shang did not seem to be willing to visit Cheng Shan anymore, rather just told his secretary to organize some money for him. In this way, just when he was playing around, he seemed to receive some notification about a bank transfer, but since the phone was far from him, he failed to see it.
The weather was not just this way in the city Cheng Shan used to work, but rather in some other adjacent regions too. Today, he could also feel it, it was showing signs of a drizzle, but that did not make him stop his practice, rather it seemed to make things slightly difficult for him and he thus continued. Balance and power control were not some skill as such did not appear on the panel, but the effect was indeed very much easy to see.
In the distance, several potato sacks could be seen hanging near the gazebo, with some cover on top, obviously some simple shelter he had set up. This was his source of energy for the next period and he could consume it without much concern, but more than that, he had already decided to go and seek another source of meat.
When he finished the practice on the stream, he put on some raincoat and boots, before setting off. He was going to confirm something, he had wanted to do all this time. It was only at this moment that he had some confidence to check it out. More than that, the moment he set his eyes on the Basic Sword technique he could see that the proficiency had already reached close to 238.
It was much faster than the Wu Qin Xi, as he took weeks to practice it to the current level, while this sword technique seems to be something that he might be able to reach the same level in just a few days. The benefit was that the moment he used the sword stance and practiced the blood energy in his body seemed to be exhausted but his body felt very warm. In the same way, his Physique had already reached 54 while his spirit was at 47. It was clear that the sword practice seemed to be strengthening his spirit more than his body.
The concentration that is required in this practice seemed to be a training of spirit in itself as well as the sword training itself. For the physique, it seemed to be the process of swinging the sword and the posture strengthened the muscles and bones. The process is obviously not faster and in the future will also become slower and slower unless other means are used, or the blood energy is recovered faster, but that was not easy at the moment as he consumed meat to accomplish this.
His figure turned into an afterimage and run down the mountain before taking the main road and heading in the direction the accident happened that day. His speed seemed to have increased and he could cover a hundred meters in less than two seconds, this was too fast. More than that he was not going all out, or it might be hundred meters per second. But he knew that this was not even worth being proud, after all the bullet traveled close to 1200 meters per second. They were not on the same level at all, but he was confident to take down an enemy before they pulled a trigger at close range and get out of the way, but if the trigger was pulled, there was nothing he could do.
That speed of the bullet was not easy to accomplish, and perhaps his physique would have to become even stronger before he could have confidence. But at that time, he thought perhaps the bullets could do less damage to him. It was not that he was a violent person, but he preferred to be rational, and in the world after his level of strength reached a certain point there might be some unexpected developments and who knows what will follow.
Standing on the site of the accident, he let the rain fall on him, after all, he had a raincoat on. Looking on the left side, a cliff could be seen, though not that high, it was present. With his agility he managed to climb to the very top and could see a dense forest before him, which was within his expectation. This was among those virgin forests that still existed in the country and no human activity was done here, or it can be said that the forest is not like the others in the country with different collections of plants and animals. The nature of this forest is considered just normal, and in that case, the number of people interested in it, is less, as for the nearby populace, they have their own myths about it. That is enough to make everyone ignore its existence, but that might not be the case for everyone.
The only thing that Chang Shen heard in the forest was the sound of the drizzle as it fell on the leaves. This did not stop his movements at all as he headed into the depths, he was not just looking for some animals to test out his strength, he also was more interested in the ginseng plants present in this forest. Considering that no one dares to go into the depths of the forest, for whatever reason, he was not in any way going to stop until he obtained something.
He clearly had the images of the plants in his head, with his current photographic memory he was not worried. Within the forest, he was the only one, but for some reason, he did not seem that scared and even wished to meet some of the creatures that were used in the Five Animal Boxing, but he did not hold any hopes for this.
When he heard the sound of a stream he moved towards the location slowly, until he could see a huge river, and this was massive. The stream that passed in the mountains where his residence was located, is nothing compared to this river, it was like the difference between a tree and a stalk of grass. That was not the thing that had his attention, rather the fact that the river seemed to be moving with a crushing momentum as it moved forward, more than that, the water seemed to be mixed with mud as it flowed thus not as clear as that from the stream on a sunny day.
The place this water was coming from seemed to be experiencing heavy rainfall, and the power that came crushing down across from the river even sent shivers down his spine because he knew that if he was standing before it, he would be crushed, and even if he survives, it would be a very painful encounter.
He was in awe of the power of nature at the moment, just standing there in a daze.
